Superintendent Shaw outlines next steps in elementary redesign, staffing and furniture planning
Summary
Superintendent Shaw reported administrators named for the 5–6 reconfiguration, a teacher selection Google form has been distributed, and the district will finalize classroom moves and building layouts by end of March; board members asked for cost tracking per redesign component.
Superintendent Shaw updated the board on the district's elementary redesign work, saying administrators were named for the 5–6 building and that staff had distributed a Google form for teacher selection and bumping considerations. "So more to come on the redesign, but it's moving along very quickly, and we're thrilled with the work alongside of our union," Shaw said.
Board members pressed for a clearer accounting of redesign costs and asked staff to add an associated‑cost column to the timeline document so the board can see the price connected to each phase. Facilities staff said some work (lighting, asbestos abatement) had come from bond or sinking funds and that a separate $250,000 line discussed for furniture would apply to the 5–6 building; the superintendent said Waterloo costs were a separate bond project.
